In order to use a recycled aggregate concrete for precast concrete box structures, the structural behaviors should be analytically and experimentally evaluated. In this study, full-scale precast concrete box structures are manufactured using the recycled aggregate (30% replacement) and natural aggregate. Then, the flexural failure test and shear failure test as well as water leakage lest for the structures arc carried out. First of all, test results of compressive strength show that recycled aggregate concrete is only 4% lower than normal concrete. In the flexural and shear failure test, the structural performances of precast box using the recycled aggregate concrete are 95% of the capacities of normal precast concrete box or more. Especially, the water leakage test shows that leakage pressure of recycled concrete box is more than the critical value, 60kPa, as well as 9% higher than normal precast concrete box. These test results are analyzed and compared with results of finite clement analysis. The comparison shows that test results are more excellent than analytical results. Also, the comparison confirms the applicability of recycled aggregate concrete for the use as practical precast concrete box structure.

To analyze the using of recycled aggregate on concrete as the substitude aggregate is important problem for the reuse of waste matter and prevention of environmental pollution. Therefore, this study is designed for investigating and analyzing the mechanical properties and early estimational properties of strength on concrete using aggregate of the waste concrete. And is aimed to provide the fundamental data for recycled aggregate.

In many countries a considerable amount of demolition wastes is generated and wastes concrete constitutes a significant proportion of the construction waste. Therefore, the necessity for the use of recycled aggregate in concrete arise and the reuse of a waste concrete may solve the problems of environmental pollution and shortage of natural aggregate. The Purpose of the present study is to investigate the effects of the recycled aggregate on the compressive strength, the permeability and the air-void system.

Recently human beings are experiencing fatal matters of environmental harm from enormous demolished concrete, even though waste concrete can get much more market value if recycled. The problem is that demolished concrete can not find the place where it can be used more economically and efficiently, but eventually can be spent worthlessly for landfill or road basement. Up to now, we can barely find the right place matching for structural performance in construction site with recycled concrete, even more, can not find another place to recycle this tremendous waste concrete. in addition it needs recycling information system between demanders and suppliers managed by government and other.

This study was a basic research for actual production of recycled aggregate concrete, and experiments were carried out on the change of water cement ratio and physical properties of recycled aggregate concrete with fixed slump. Results were as follows. Concrete using recycled aggregate were required increased water to maintain the target slump, and the recycled fine aggregate are necessary more increased water more than the recycled coarse aggregate. The replacement ratio of recycled fine aggregate be less than 60%, would be possible to obtain the air content volume that did not deviate from the concrete quality specification. The compressive strength of concrete using recycled aggregate decreased with increasing the replacement of recycled aggregate, and compressive strength decreased by 25% when 100% recycled fine aggregate were replaced. As a result of analyzing the correlation of compressive strength according to the mixing factors of concrete, it was found that replacement of recycled fine aggregate> water cement ratio> air content volume were influenced in order.

The recycling of demolished concrete as an alternative source of coarse aggregates for the production of new concrete can help to solve the growing waste disposal crisis and the problem of the depletion of natural aggregates. The purpose of this study is to investigate the chloride migration of recycled aggregate concrete containing pozzolanic materials by the chloride migration coefficient. The specimens were made with recycled coarse aggregate at various replacement ratios (10, 30, 50%) and metakaolin, blast furnace slag, and fly ash is replaced for recycled concrete with a mixing ratio of 20%. The major results are as follows. 1) The compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete containing pozzolanic materials increases as the curing age and chloride diffusivity decreases. 2) When the replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate is 30%, the chloride migration coefficient of recycled concrete containing blast furnace slag or metakaolin that shows a value similar to or lower than that of plain concrete at all ages.

This study investigated effect of recycled fine aggregate quality on strength properties of concrete. Some investigations have been carried out to study the strength properties of recycled aggregate concrete. But these have some limitation due to small-scale test in the laboratory. Therefore concrete using this study were fabricated by ready-mix concrete. Variables were quality of recycled fine aggregate(high and low quality) and replacement ratio of 0%, 30%, 60%, 100%(high quality), 35, 70%(low quality). The change of air content of recycled aggregate concrete were similar to natural aggregate concrete. Replacement ratio of recycled aggregate was not necessarily correlated with compressive strength and modulus of rupture of recycled aggregate concrete.

Due to the tendency of increase in demolished-concrete produced by alteration and deterioration of concrete structures, recycling of those demolished-concrete is necessary to solve the exhaustion of natural aggregate, in order to save resources and protect environment. In this an experimental study herein, the Chlorine-ion and Carbonation resistance of the recycled aggregate concrete was investigated. Coarse aggregate was replaced with $100\%$ of the recycled aggregate and cement and fine recycled aggregate was replaced with various amount. It was shown that the concrete can obtain resistance of chlorine-ion, when fly ash replaced with up to $30\%$ of cement.

The physical properties of freshly mixed steel fiber reinforced recycled concrete(SFRRC) were_investigated. Physical state and quality of fresh concrete were monitored batch by batch. the properties of freshly mixed SFRRC were determined in terms of slump, air content, superplasticizer, and bleeding ratio. Concrete mixtures were produced for three kinds of aggregate proportions. So, the experimental variables are various aggregate proportions, steel fiber contents(0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5%) and steel length(30, 50, 60mm). From experimental results, optimum s/a by various experimental variables, variations of the slump by the air contents, and optimum superplasticizer to decrease unit water were presented.
